ʻO ka male ma ke kahakai ma Kaleponi
I kēlā me kēia kau hoʻohiki,ʻikeʻia kaʻike ma kaʻaoʻao Kaleponi e like me nā mea'ē aʻe. I kēlā manawa, ua'ākoakoa nā kaukani'ākau o ka'ākau'ākau i nā kahakai, e hoʻi ana mai kahi lōʻihi ma ke kai. I loko o nā hola pōkole wale nō, he wā nui ia e hakakā ai nā kāne e lilo i bipi ikaika loa, hele mai nā wāhine i uka, hānauʻia nā pēpē a ukuhiʻia. Ma hope o ia mea, hoʻi lākou a pau i ka moana i kahi e noho ai no ka hapa o nā mahina e hiki mai.
ʻO kahi kolamu hānau ma kahiʻo'Anoo Nuevo State Park ma ka'ākau o Santa Cruz, he wahi pōkole wale nō ia mai kahi kaʻa kaʻa. I ka heleʻana i kahi wāwae, hiki i nā malihini ke loaʻa i kahi manawa kūpono eʻike ai iā lāua. Hiki i nā kānakaʻokoʻa huahana ke alakaʻi i nā mākaʻikaʻi, e wehewehe i nā heleʻana, a mālama i nā hōʻailona o nā elephant a me nā kānaka palekana kekahi i kekahi.
Inā ua lakaʻoe, hiki iāʻoe keʻike i kahi keiki i hānau ai a nānā i kahi kaua ma waena o nā kāneʻelua. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā hakakā he hopena maikaʻi wale nō ia, akā he mea hauʻoli naʻe.
Hiki paha iāʻoe ke lohe i nā'ōlepa 2.5-ton e hana i kā lākou mau kālepa ho'ōla i'ōleloʻia e kekahi poʻe e like me ke kaʻakanika i loko o ka'auwaʻa. Hiki iāʻoe ke lohe i ke kākauʻana o ia mea ma kahi pūnaewele o Marine Mammal Center.

Elephant Seal Life Cycle
Hōʻailona nā hōʻailona o Elephant i ka hapa nui o ko lākou ola ma ke kai. E hoʻomaka ana i ka hopena o Dekemaba, hoʻomaka lākou e hele i uka me kahi hoʻokahi, e hoʻomaka me nā kāne.
Heʻumikumamāhā a heʻumikumamāono kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi, a heʻehā haneli ka lōʻihi, e komo ana nā mea nui i nā pale liʻiliʻi e hiki ke ulu aʻe i loko o nā hakakā paʻakikī e hoʻoholo ai i ke kuleana a me ka pono e noho i waenakonu o ka hale harem a me ka wahine me nā wāhine.
Hele nā wāhine i uka ma hope. Hāpai lākou i hoʻokahi pā, he 75 mau paona, a lailaʻohi lākou i nā lau nui. Hāpai lākou i kā lākou keiki no kahi o hoʻokahi mahina, make, a laila haʻalele lākou i nā keiki'ōpio (e hiki ke kaumaha i kahi 350 paona) e hoʻi i ke kai.
Ma Malaki, ua hala ka hapa nui o nā poʻe'ōpio. ʻO nā'ōpiopio i kapaʻia he "weaners," ke aʻo nui nei i kaʻauʻauʻana, keʻimi i ka meaʻai, a ola i ko lākou iho pono'ī.
ʻAʻole like me nā holoholona'ē aʻe, nā hōʻailona'elepelu e hoʻokahe mau loa i ko lākou lauoho, e hoʻi hou ana i kahakai i ka manawa o ke kauwela a me ke kau wela. ʻO ke koena o ka makahiki, aia lākou i ke kai, hiki i ka 90% o ko lākou manawa ma lalo o ka wai, luʻu waiʻu no 20 mau minuke i kekahi manawa i kahi hohonu o 2,000 kapuaʻi eʻimi ana i meaʻai.
No kaʻike houʻana e pili ana i nā hili nani o nā elephant a lohe i ka hoʻopaʻaʻana o kā lākou mau piila hauʻoli, e kipa i ka pūnaewele o nā Hoa o Elephant Seal.
